Installing the eLink Adapter for Portal Infranet

 

This chapter contains the following topics:

 


Installation Prerequisites

Refer to the BEA eLink Adapter for Portal Infranet Release Notes for information on prerequisite software that must be installed and operational prior to installing the eLink Adapter for Portal Infranet software.

Note: BEA eLink Platform 1.2 must be installed prior to installing the eLink Adapter for Portal Infranet component for the eLink Platform execution environment.

The current BEA eLink Platform leverages the BEA Tuxedo infrastructure because it is based on a service-oriented architecture. Both BEA Tuxedo and BEA eLink communicate directly with each other and with other applications through the use of services. Multiple services are grouped into "application servers" or "servers". The terms, Tuxedo services/ servers and eLink services/servers can be used interchangeably. Because this document is specifically addressing the eLink family, the term "eLink service" and "eLink server" is used throughout.
